..and yes, the Piston 2 is outstanding. Not a flagship killer, but outstanding. 

I agree. Someone asked me if they were better than the GR07. I said no way. Better than the M200?? Close but still no cigar. Better than the Monster Miles Davis Trumpet? Close but no cigar. Better than the GR07? Again...close but...it's not a flagship killer, but it is a hi-fi heavyweight.

You didn't say patent pending.

If I had to compare the Xiaomi Piston 2.0 with a Vsonic, it would be the GR07BE (I only have this and all the VSD1/S/LE). It is a funner version to the more analytic GR07BE. Piston has less treble than GR07BE but has more punch/slam in the sub-bass. Mids are nice and clear on both. I think the stiffer beryllium alloy driver of the Piston 2.0 can be compared to the bio-cellulose driver of the GR07BE. The Pistons are a great buy at ~$20 with sound quality similar to an IEM at $130.

I'm still waiting for my DUNU DN-1000, and when they arrive, I highly doubt the Piston will usurp them in sound quality, though if you listen to mochill, they do. 

 

[waynes world]

Impressive indeed.

 

[mochill]

The pistons are very close but not there, but might change with more burn in..my one has 6hours and my dnk has 16hours

 

[waynes world]

Well, one thing for sure is that they seem like an incredible iem for the price.... assuming of course that you all aren't crazy!

 

[mochill]

Yes they are so is the dunu

 

[IEMagnet01]

Well, one thing for sure is that they seem like an incredible iem for the price.

that they are. they truly are a heavyweight IEM for a very small price. a much better value that the Sony MH1C ever was.

 

[waynes world]

Yeah, but the mh1c cable gave me so much joy which was priceless

 

[mochill]

Get them Wayne..won't regret them.

 

[mochill]

They sound like the gr07 BE but better soundstage and only with 6hrs burn in

 

[waynes world]

I wouldn't regret it, but there's not much point for me unless they best what I've got methinks.
